The following packages are required to build netCDF-C using CMake.

• netCDF-C Source Code

• CMake version 2.8.12 or greater.

• Optional Requirements:

  • HDF5 Libraries for netCDF4/HDF5 support.
  • libcurl for DAP support.
  • PnetCDF libraries for parallel I/O support to classic netCDF files

If you have libraries installed in a custom directory, you may need to specify the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variable to tell cmake where the libraries are installed. For example:

$ cmake [Source Directory] -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/

Building

The compiler can be executed directly with ‘make’ or the appropriate command for the configurator which was used.

$ make

Building can also be executed indirectly via cmake:

$ cmake –build [Build Directory]
